Glossary

AI Overviews: AI Overviews are AI-generated summaries that Google shows above the classic search results. They answer the query directly from several sources — often without anyone clicking through to a website. Visibility goes to whoever is cited as a source.
AI agent: An AI agent is an AI system that does not just answer questions but completes tasks on a user's behalf: it plans steps, retrieves information and uses tools and interfaces — for instance to compare offers or prepare an enquiry.
AI hallucination: An AI hallucination is a convincingly worded but false or fabricated statement by an AI system. Language models compute plausible phrasings — where a reliable source is missing, they guess. Risky for businesses: invented opening hours or services look deceptively real.
AI-ready: A website is AI-ready when AI systems such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity can read it without errors, classify it correctly and recommend it as a reliable source. It is not about a chatbot on your own site, but about being understandable to the AI systems out there.
Cookieless: Cookieless describes a website that works without third-party tracking cookies — no foreign cookies, no cookie banner, full data sovereignty. Measurement is first-party, directly on your own domain.
Dual-channel visibility: Dual-channel visibility means your website serves two audiences at once: people through classic search and AI systems through machine-readable content. Each channel has its own requirements — serve only one and you lose the other.
Earned Media: Earned media are mentions and recommendations you earn — in press, specialist articles or directories — instead of buying them or publishing them yourself. For AI visibility they count heavily: web mentions carry roughly three times the weight of classic backlinks.
GEO (Generative Engine Optimization): GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the practice of optimising content to be cited as a source in AI-generated answers — for example by ChatGPT or Perplexity. Statistics, sources and expert quotes increase the chance of being cited by up to 40% (ACM KDD 2024).
Generative UI: A Generative UI is an interface an AI assembles itself at the moment of use — tailored to the question, instead of pre-built. For businesses this means: content must exist as clear data, so the AI can place it into any interface.
Headless CMS: A headless CMS separates content management from presentation: content is maintained once in a central place and delivered through an interface to any channel — website, app, shop or AI agent. No “head” (frontend) is hard-wired, hence the name.
LLM (Large Language Model): A Large Language Model (LLM) is the language model behind AI assistants like ChatGPT or Gemini: trained on vast amounts of text, it generates answers in natural language. How it represents your business depends on how machine-readable your foundation is.
LLMs.txt: llms.txt is a small text file on your site that shows AI models, in a structured way, which content matters and how to understand it. It makes your foundation machine-readable — so assistants capture and recommend your business without errors.
MCP (Model Context Protocol): MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI assistants access your website content in a structured way and with clear permissions. Your content becomes directly and correctly accessible to AI systems — instead of merely being crawled.
Media break: A media break is the switch of medium or system within a process — data has to be retyped or copied by hand. It costs time, creates errors and breaks automation. The more separate, isolated tools you run, the more expensive it gets.
NAP (Name, Address, Phone): NAP stands for Name, Address, Phone — your business's three core contact details. NAP consistency means they match everywhere. Contradictory NAP data leads AI assistants to recommend your business with wrong information.
Owned Media: Owned media are the channels you own and fully control — above all your own digital foundation. For fact questions it's the AI's preferred source: a large share of all AI citations comes directly from the company's own website.
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation): RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is the technique AI answer engines work with: the language model combines its base knowledge with individual text passages retrieved live from the web before it answers. That's why the individual passage counts for visibility, not the whole page.
Single Source of Truth: Single Source of Truth means: your important data lives in ONE central place instead of scattered across many programs. Everything draws from it — no contradictions, no outdated copies, one reliable picture of your business.
Spatial Web: The Spatial Web distributes digital information in three-dimensional space instead of on a flat page — visible through augmented or virtual reality, anchored to real places and coordinates. The website becomes an object in space.
Structured data: Structured data is machine-readable information embedded in a website's code, usually following the Schema.org standard in JSON-LD format. It tells search engines and AI systems unambiguously what content means — such as a business's opening hours, address, services or reviews.
TDM opt-out (TDMRep): A TDM opt-out is a machine-readable declaration that your content may not be used for text and data mining or the training of AI models. TDMRep is the format for it — it protects against training but does not prevent reading and citation by AI answer systems.
Vector database: A vector database stores texts not as words but as numerical patterns of their meaning (embeddings). This lets an AI find the passage that fits by content — not the one with the same keywords. For AI visibility, clear meaning counts, not keyword density.
Zero-UI: Zero-UI describes interaction entirely without a visible interface: instead of typing or clicking, you ask by voice, gesture or context — and the environment answers. The interface disappears, the content remains.
Zero-click search: Zero-click search means a search query ends without the user visiting a website — the answer comes directly from the search engine or AI. In early 2026, around 68% of US Google searches ended without a click; when an AI overview appears, the share rises above 80%.

FAQ (Latest 8 of 66)

How do I keep opening hours and contact details up to date everywhere? — The core principle: one source instead of many copies. If opening hours, address and phone number are maintained in one central place, and the website, structured data and machine-readable formats…
What role do Google reviews play in AI recommendations? — A big one. AI assistants base their recommendations on publicly available sources — and review profiles are among the strongest signals of how a business is perceived. The number, recency and content…
How fast does AI optimisation work — when will I see first results? — At two different speeds. The technical foundation works immediately: from go-live, every machine — search engine or AI system — reads your content in a better, less ambiguous form. Structured data,…
How do I measure whether my business appears in AI answers? — The most direct way: test it yourself. Ask the popular AI assistants the questions your customers would ask — for example, “which business near me does…?” — and check whether your business is…
Isn't a drag-and-drop site builder cheaper? — In the short term, yes, no question. But over time you pay a subscription that grows with every new feature, and you stay technically locked into the provider — switching means rebuilding almost…
Why not just use WordPress? — It can do almost anything, no question — WordPress is very flexible that way. The difference shows up in day-to-day operation: to make your website readable for AI assistants and cleanly structured…
Do you also handle the marketing? — Yes — performance marketing, ads, and content. Website, branding, and marketing come together with one point of contact who also understands what's happening under the hood — instead of you…
Can I correct wrong AI-generated information about my business? — You can't directly correct a single AI answer — but you control the sources it's built from. AI systems rely mainly on your website and public directories such as your Google Business Profile or…
